This boxed set is a veritable treasure trove, an embarrassment of riches, a golden hoard - you come up with the cliché and I’ll accept it. Released along with other sets to celebrate her 70th birthday it is a remarkable musical record of fabulous achievement packed with superlative performances that simply take the breath away.
This boxed set certainly shows all the music to its greatest advantage with every composer served magnificently by Martha Argerich and her chosen colleagues and, as I said in the beginning, I cannot imagine any composer from Mozart to Guastavino taking issue with her over interpretations. This is a set any piano music lover will treasure forever and no one will want to be without it once it’s theirs. I have only one criticism which concerns the accompanying booklet which, though it includes an interesting article about Martha Argerich herself, says little about the music and nothing at all about any of the fellow interpreters which seems to me to be insulting to some great pianists who deserve better.
